About This Home

As of April 2026

6.87 ACRESS! The property's powerful feature is the massive 80x36 foot metal pole barn. This structure is built for work, with concrete floors and immense storage capacity for equipment, vehicles, and tools. Heavy-duty overhead gantry crane and hoist system for incredible lifting power and versatility for restorations, automotive work, or handling heavy machinery. 12' sliding door. The 1919 farmhouse retains its charming exterior. The interior, while requiring renovation shown by the current photos, it does have some upgrades such as replacement vinyl windows, walk-in tub and tankless water heater. With some imagination and hard work, this classic structure can be revealed and transformed into a beautiful home. The property consists of grassy rolling fields, mature trees, and small pond. The acreage creates possibilities for expanding gardens, raising animals, building additional outbuildings, or simply enjoying the privacy and space of your own country estate. If you are seeking a blend of significant functional workspace, expansive land, and the opportunity to restore a historic farmhouse to its original splendor, this property offers the perfect foundation. Bring your tools, your vision, and explore the incredible possibilities that await. This is an Estate Sale, "AS IS - AS Shown". Cash/Conventional. Heirs have never resided on premises. SELLERS WILL REVIEW OFFERS AT 5 PM +/- on 4/9/2026.
